Whiskey Burn

A remote Montana ranch offers Delilah Grant a place to hide, but escaping danger is only the beginning of her troubles in Whiskey Burn by Ava Hunter, the first book in The Weston Brothers series. After witnessing a brutal murder, Delilah knows she must disappear to survive. Carrying a stolen USB that could hold dangerous secrets, she makes her way to Weston Whiskey, hoping to remain unnoticed while she rebuilds her life. Keeping quiet and working hard may help her stay hidden, but her new surroundings bring her face-to-face with someone who is not easily fooled. Cole Weston is a former bull rider with a guarded nature and a complicated past. Protective of his family's ranch and suspicious of strangers, he immediately questions Delilah's motives. He sees the secrets she is trying to conceal, even as he struggles to resist the attraction developing between them. Their relationship unfolds amid the rugged atmosphere of ranch life, family loyalties, and the threat of violence. What begins with suspicion gradually becomes a connection neither can easily dismiss. But Delilah's past has not disappeared, and the danger following her threatens more than their growing romance. As the stakes rise, Cole must decide how far he is willing to go to protect the woman he has come to care for. Delilah, meanwhile, must face the consequences of what she knows and determine whether she can trust someone with her future. Blending contemporary Western romance, suspense, and a strong romantic connection, Whiskey Burn will appeal to adult readers who enjoy protective heroes, independent heroines, small-town and rural settings, and relationships tested by dangerous circumstances. It also introduces the Weston family and the conflicts that set the series in motion.
